9 Information and Usage
10 This is a list of standard page (media) sizes by name (e.g., 'A4' or
11 'Legal'), given by width and height in Big Points (72 per inch). See
12 the code in PaperSizes.pm for the actual entries. You do not have to
13 use these names; they are merely provided as convenient shortcuts. You
14 can always specify the desired dimensions (in points) yourself.
15
16 The PDF specification (and PDF readers) default to US Letter size
17 (portrait orientation, 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches high). If you want
18 to use anything else, you will have to make a "mediabox()" call to
19 specify the media (paper) size. For named sizes, capitalization doesn't
20 matter (all entries are folded to lower case, so 'A4' and 'a4' work the
21 same).
22
23 Different sources give somewhat different paper dimensions, especially
24 for archaic or unusual sizes, so take care and measure your actual
25 paper before printing, so you can avoid wasting paper and time printing
26 to the wrong mediabox! Also keep in mind that many printers cannot
27 print all the way to the edge (don't want to get ink or toner on the
28 paper rollers), so set your margins accordingly.
